A little look at what being inside the Hysterectomy Support Hub actually offers.

This isn’t about information overload.
It’s about knowing where to turn when questions, fears or worries pop up.

Eerything is brought together in one calm, supportive space, so you’re not left feeling alone.

Most people join when the questions start stacking up and not when things feel terrible. Support works best before you hit the wobble.

👉 I’ve shared the details in the comments, I’d love to support you there.

Recovery is an odd word really.

It can mean so many different things to so many people.

For me, it’s not so easy to measure as simply as well or not well.

It’s about years of pain, gaslighting, dismissal, making decisions without the right information, and a whole lot of hoping for validation.

It’s about getting my life back.

It’s about turning my personal journey into help and hope for many thousands of others.

How do you feel about your hysterectomy recovery?

You need support.

And that’s ok! I see you.

Having a hysterectomy, going through menopause. They are tough. I’ve done it myself.

I have the support that you need.

It’s all of the support that I needed, but couldn’t find.

Support that you can access immediately.

Support that will help you. Today.

2 “things” and I’ll pop both down in the comments.

Come and join - I hate knowing that you are out there struggling.

Recovery tip ..

Hold a small pillow or cushion against your tummy when you cough, sneeze, laugh, or even yawn.

It might feel a bit strange the first time you do it, but it can really help!

Gently hugging a pillow against your abdomen supports your incisions and can reduce that sharp pulling feeling many feel after surgery.

If you are in early in recovery, it’s worth keeping a pillow nearby.

Trust me, those surprise sneezes after surgery can be quite the experience 😬.

1-1 Hysterectomy Support Sessions can be booked again now, with lots of availability from next week onwards.

(I have messaged this of you who have already asked to let you know this so check your inbox’s!)

It’s been very odd not doing them this last week but travel and time zones simply didn’t allow!

I’ll pop the details in the comments for anyone wanting to book.

A 1-1 with me is friendly, informative and I can help you with anything that you are struggling with. I bring over 12 years of expert experience to my 1-1 sessions to ensure that you get the exact support that you need.

Just a little reminder.

Sometimes things feel hard, and heavy.

A hysterectomy and recovery are a big deal and it can be overwhelming trying to manage everything.

But, the sun does come out again.

Your sun will shine again soon.

Post surgery info …

Pelvic floor changes after hysterectomy are far more common than you might realise.

You might notice bladder urgency, lots of pressure, some discomfort, or changes in how the pelvic muscles feel.

Especially in the early days.

Equally, any pre surgery pelvic floor issues can resolve immediately.

Pelvic floor physiotherapy can be incredibly helpful after surgery, but it’s something that lots of us are never told about.

If you have access to it, I’d highly recommend regardless of anything else.

Support for recovery shouldn’t stop just because surgery is over.

If you need to learn more about pelvic floor health, I have all that you need to get started in the comments.

Being in the Hysterectomy Support Hub gives you a whole new level of support.

I’m always there at the end of a DM. Personally.

I’m always in amongst conversations.

You aren’t ever left to figure everything out alone.

And you get access to every single resource, the moment that you join.

See you there soon - info is in the comments as usual!

A quick hysterectomy fact …

Many are never told that internal stitches after a hysterectomy can take months to fully dissolve.

So if you feel occasional pulling, twinges or odd sensations internally weeks after surgery, it doesn’t necessarily mean something is wrong.

Your body is still healing in places you can’t see.

External scars may look healed long before the deeper tissues are finished recovering.

I made it to Australia 🇦🇺!

It was a long journey and after arriving yesterday, I slept for ten hours solid last night - which is rare for me!

But on my way here I noticed a few similarities from my own hysterectomy journey. So if you are preparing or recovering for surgery these tips will help.

1. The journey was long, but once I got there it was worth it.

2. When you are tired, everything seems to take longer and feels heavier.

3. Even if it’s the wrong time to sleep when you usually should, you still need sleep.

4. A good nights sleep is restorative and precious!

5. If you don’t move around, you stiffen up and moving feels even more uncomfortable.

6. When your bodies rhythm is disrupted, so are your bowels.

7. Eating little and often helps bloating.

8. Water. Hydration is essential.

And sunshine. Sitting in the sunshine always makes me feel better.

If you are in the first 6-8 weeks of recovery you likely can’t swim.

If you live in the UK it’s rarely warm enough to swim outside!

But, I thought I’d share a picture of my sisters pool anyway, because she is lucky enough to live in this climate 🤣!

Our Story!

Hysterectomy Support and Shared Experiences was founded as a Facebook Group in November 2013. It was founded by 4 women who had had a hysterectomy and were struggling to connect with other women for mutual support. The group provides a safe and private space for women seeking support from other women with anything hysterectomy related. Fast forward to today and we now have a group membership of almost 22,000 women with a monthly interaction rate of well over 150,000 posts, comments and reactions. We also have an active page. Our mission has always been to reach more women needing hysterectomy related support and we continue to grow by 400-500 members each month. We have written and self published our own group book “Hysterectomy Support and Shared Experiences - Our Little Hysterectomy Handbook” which can be brought on Amazon and downloaded to any Kindle reader or device with the kindle App installed. We are now looking to extend our reach even more with a website offering additional resources. We have been nominated for a WEGO International Health Award for two successive years and had a radio interview broadcast across the iHeart Radio Network which remains available as a podcast on Spotify and iTunes. Hysterectomy Support and Shared Experiences is now a Trading Name of The Shared Support Network Ltd. Registered as a Company in the UK, Company Number 11313295. We are incredibly proud of the support that we are able to provide to women across the world.
